retail therapy

so what day is, it, anyway? i'm starting to feel more than a little disoriented. thankfully, only 2 calls remain. i'm not in a chatty mood tonight (this seems to be a theme post-call). call itself was okay: 3 heme/onc admissions all in a row, but things quieted down eventually and i got several hours of uninterrupted sleep.

i have to admit i am feeling a little down. i don't want to go into specifics (maybe i will someday, but not now) but i got some news at a doctor's appointment that kind of bummed me out. while annoying, it is nothing at all life-threatening or unmanageable and i certainly see enough truly sick people in the world to realize that in the grand scheme of things, i am still very lucky.

all i could think about for the last 2 miles was the smoothie i was going to make upon arriving home! i CHUGGED the mixture of frozen banana, yogurt, POM, and orange juice that i created. so refreshing!
